Renewable energy adoption has made significant strides in recent years. According to a United Nations report, renewable sources now generate approximately 29% of global electricity. However, this progress falls short of the International Renewable Energy Agency’s (IRENA) ambitious outlook, which envisions 90% of the world’s electricity coming from renewable sources by 2050.
To achieve this goal, companies like Lelantos Energy, a wholly owned subsidiary of Lelantos Holdings (OTC Pink: LNTO), and SolaX Power are working to address persistent challenges in the renewable energy sector, particularly in solar energy.
Blockers in the Adoption of Renewable Energies
Despite the significant growth in solar energy adoption, several persistent challenges hinder widespread implementation. One of the primary issues is the intermittent nature of renewable sources like solar and wind, which can lead to grid instability. This variability is particularly pronounced in regions heavily reliant on these technologies, such as California and the Southwest United States, where solar generation is more prevalent.
In these areas, people notice grid imbalances more easily, as changing weather conditions and time of day cause power supply fluctuations. For households and businesses, this intermittency can result in unreliable power supply, potentially causing disruptions in daily operations and increasing the need for backup power systems.
Energy storage and management present another significant hurdle in the widespread adoption of solar energy. While companies have made advancements in storage technologies, the high costs of large-scale storage applications make it challenging for residential and commercial users to implement effective solutions. This issue is particularly acute for households and small businesses, where the initial investment in energy storage systems can be prohibitively expensive.
Additionally, optimizing energy use during peak and off-peak hours is a complex task for users at all levels. This challenge can impact operational efficiency and energy costs for businesses, while households may struggle to align their energy consumption patterns with the variable output of their renewable energy systems. As a result, many potential adopters of solar energy are hesitant to fully commit to these systems without more cost-effective and reliable storage solutions.
“The transition to solar energy is not just about generating clean power; it’s about certifying that power is available when and where it’s needed,” Sean Land, CEO of Lelantos Energy, explained. “Innovative storage solutions and smarter grid technologies are essential to overcoming these hurdles, and we have built our solar business model around the incorporation of these technological solutions.”
A Strategic Partnership to Power Renewable Energies
The partnership between Lelantos Energy and SolaX Power represents a strategic alignment of aptitude and technology to improve the delivery of renewable energy projects, especially solar energy. Both companies envision creating integrated energy solutions that reduce costs and enhance efficiency.
Lelantos Energy designs customized systems integrating renewable energy sources, battery storage, and advanced controls. At the same time, SolaX Power is a global leader in energy storage and smart energy systems. They aim to address critical challenges in the renewable energy sector, such as intermittency, grid instability, and high energy storage costs, by using their complementary strengths.
For instance, SolaX Power’s advanced energy storage systems, such as the X3 Hybrid G4 and X1 IES inverters, secure efficient storage and distribution of renewable energy, even during periods of low generation.
These systems integrate seamlessly with Lelantos Energy’s microgrid platforms, which are designed to enhance grid resilience and flexibility. They can be installed from urban centers to remote locations without grid connections, allowing for real-time energy optimization and verifying that power is available when and where it is needed most.
SolaX Power’s scalable solutions for residential and commercial applications align with Lelantos Energy’s focus on decentralized energy systems, creating a comprehensive framework that maximizes efficiency and minimizes costs.
Kevin Smith from SolaX Power mentions, “We amplify each other’s strengths to solve today’s issues and doubts surrounding renewable energy. This collaboration highlights our shared commitment to advancing sustainable energy solutions while offering attractive returns for investors through scalable, future-proof projects.”
Joshua Weaver, COO of Lelantos Energy, adds, “Whether, for residential or commercial use, we make solar energy plans accessible and aligned with our clients’ needs. This means not just improving how we generate these energies but also how we store and distribute them for maximum efficiency.”
Staying Ahead of the Challenge
SolaX Power and Lelantos Energy recognize that achieving the IRENA’s outlook of sourcing 90% of global electricity from renewable energy by 2050 remains a monumental challenge. However, their partnership marks a significant step forward in addressing the barriers to this transformation.
SolaX Power and Lelantos Energy combine SolaX’s advanced energy storage systems and smart management tech with Lelantos’ microgrid proficiency. Together, they create scalable renewable energy solutions that target both homes and businesses. The partnership aims to facilitate the transition to renewable energy sources.
In its mission to remain agile and responsive to industry changes, Lelantos Energy also shares a partnership with NeRD Power. This further expands its capacity to deliver comprehensive solutions across commercial solar, residential solar, microgrid design, energy storage architecture, and electric vehicle supercharging.
This partnership enables Lelantos Energy to address every aspect of renewable energy deployment, from engineering design and financing to construction and long-term maintenance.
Sean Land from Lelantos Energy further mentions, “We aim to tackle critical challenges such as intermittency, grid stability, and energy storage inefficiencies. These collaborations accelerate progress toward IRENA’s projections and achieve two goals: allow households and businesses to experience the solar power energy difference and provide high-yield opportunities for investors.”
